NPP protests ignorance of Jammu martyrs by State government

Exposing Saffron Brigade’s despicable retreat on the sacrifices of the six Jammu martyrs who were ambushed in Manipur last year, Panthers Party staged a massive and vociferous demonstration spearheaded by Provincial President JKNPP Rajesh Padgotra along with the families of the martyrs over the treacherous surrenders made by the BJP before the PDP for the crumbs of power
amid raising slogans of “Desh Drohiyon Ka Samman, Shahidon
Ka Apmaan…Nahin Sahenge”,”Shahidon Ke Saath Bhed Bhaav…Band Karo”,”Shahidon Ko Unka…Insaaf Do” and “BJP-PDP. Hai Hai” at Exhibition Ground here on Tuesday. Padgotra disclosed to the media that 18 Jawans of 6 Dogra were ambushed to death by Naxalites at Manipur on 4th June last year among whom 6 martyrs belonged to Jammu region. He said that the State government turned a blind eye to the Supreme sacrifices of these valiant soldiers of Jammu and lambasted the sinister BJP-PDP combine for refusing the ex-gratia and compensation to the martyrs.
Accusing the coalition govt of double standards and BJP in
particular, Padgotra called upon the Jammu based Ministers to shed off their inhibitions and assert in view of growing public resentment against their inaction, political incompetence and vulnerability. He said that BJP which was already exposed for its demagoguery and cowardly surrenders must immediately announce adequate compensation for all martyrs of Jammu and compassionate appointments or else get ready to face the wrath of the people in the days to come. Prominent among those who were present on
the occasion included Shankar Singh Chib, Satvir Singh Manhas, Nirmal Kishore, Sardar NP Singh, Rakesh Verma, Pradeep Sharma, Vicky Sharma besides others.
